Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay died on Wednesday at 65 years old.
His death arrived as a shock to many and prompted an outpouring of grief from members of the Colts family and the broader NFL.
Hall of Fame quarterback Peyton Manning, who played for Irsay and brought the Colts their first and only Super Bowl victory while representing Indianapolis, wrote on Instagram Wednesday night that he is "heartbroken."
He wrote his message alongside a photo of himself standing next to Irsay after the Colts drafted him in 1998.
"I am heartbroken to hear about Jim Irsay’s passing," Manning wrote.
